Foreigners in the government of Dr. Sá Carneiro and who went to Minister of Defense, succeeding the Eng. Amaro da Costa. He never told me at the time in these sir or seven months problems. What he was telling me was what kind of National Defense and Armed Forces law is that we should prepare to present at the right time. And he even showed me a preliminary project about which I made comments, which he later had to rework and which served me base for when I was Minister of Defense, from September, in the second government of Dr. Balsemān, in the VIII constitutional government, could write by my hand the proposed law, in terms that are known. What I did when I received the London Telegram - and it says in that book - went to call the secretary general of the Ministry of Business who was, at the time, the most senior official at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (...) who had diplomatic functions, he was the head of Portuguese diplomacy (...) so I called him and said “take it easy immediately the telegram. with my dispatch, to the director of the Judiciary Police ". Mine institutional concern was that, having received that telegram, send it to the entity that, by law, I had to investigate what had happened, and, above all, if there had been any crime or not. I confess that it never occurred to me to know whether or not there were documents in the Eng. Amaro da Costa, it never occurred to me. I admit, but I no longer remember, I admit that the boss Engro Amaro da Costa's office came to talk to me during that 30-day period, I admit that yes, it is almost natural, it is almost ceriain that it will have come, but as much as mine memory recalls, he didn't say anything to me, nor did he give me anything, so I can only conclude that either there was nothing in the office of Eng.

he had discovered this or that, or that one. I just wanted to explain one more thing: what i knew, at the time, that only Eng. Amaro da Costa, because he told me, was investigating the Overseas Military Defense Fund and had found what seemed to him irregularities in the functioning of this Fund, but I knew nothing more than thai. Me I only came to know, through the Repori of the Vili Parliamentary Committee of Inquiry, that I came to know that there was parallel accounting and that, alongside official accounting, where tens of thousands of contos passed, there was an unofficial account where millions of contos passed. I only cume to know this from the Report of the VIII Commission Parliamentary Inquiry, which is why I placed such importance in my book on this issue. What the hell: if the official accounting only talks about tens of thousands of contos, and if there is a parallel, illegal, clandestine accounting, in which millions move, this must be the main point to investigate. (.....) I don't know if it was investigated, if not; I don't know if some conclusion, or not, but if there was anything serious, it was that. At least Thar. There could be a few more. But that was certainly a very serious issue. Only that I didn't know at the time (...) it didn't occur to me that the key to the problem, a problem that I didn't know about these details (...) could be in documents that had been in the Eng.

Questioned about having questioned the date as to the possibility of an attack, and what would be the your reason, replied:
